Exploring the world looking for nice fibers,
sometimes I use them but mostly I stash them

Vogue 1236 DKNY dress

I fell in love with this pattern as soon as I saw it and ordered a copy. I liked the simplicity of the dress, the way the stripes behave at the neckline and that I can wear a bra under without peeking out.I used a cotton sateen stretch fabric and started by sewing the pleats down, they where supposted to be basted, but I actually prefer them my way so no ripping...Detail of neckline, looks great in plaid but will work in any fabric and my plan is to make a top from it too. This is going to be a favourite pattern!!!
